How to solve this issue
Can you please tell me:
- The version of Windows 10 SDK
- The version of Visual Studio 2017 (Go to Help > About Microsoft Visual Studio)
- The version of .NET Core?
As a hit and trial: can you try this:
- Unload the project and reload it.
- Try restoring nuget by Right Clicking on the .sln in the Solution Explorer and pressing "Restore Nuget Packages".
- Try cleaning the solution and rebuilding.
Thanks, hope this helps.
Your version are all good (better than mine ๐ ). That error is about the project BreadPlayer.Controls. Try building it separately.
I think the BreadPlayer.Controls project is targeting an old version of Windows 10 SDK which you do not have. Simply do this:
Open the .csproj file in a Text Editor.
Find and replace these two lines:
<TargetPlatformVersion>10.0.14393.0</TargetPlatformVersion>
<TargetPlatformMinVersion>10.0.10240.0</TargetPlatformMinVersion>
With these:
<TargetPlatformVersion>10.0.16299.0</TargetPlatformVersion>
<TargetPlatformMinVersion>10.0.14393.0</TargetPlatformMinVersion>
I got it to work, thanks man, looking forward to be a great contributor to you! any tips, guidelines or a checklist of the features you guys are working on or you wanna add, just briefly right here!
@iamanas20 That's good news! Congrats. ๐ The one feature that I cannot implement but really need is XBox One support. If you happen to have that (an XBox, I mean), that would be a tremendous contribution.
Anyhow, since there is a less chance of the above, here's a small list of things you can do:
- Currently I am working on Folder Navigation and have nearly completed the basics of it. You can help me with that.
- Go to this issue and you will find a list of all the things people have requested. You can choose any one from the list and begin development.
- One other thing that would be welcome and appreciated is DLNA support. In UWP, its rather easy and if you want to work on that, you are welcome to.
All else is really up to you. I don't enforce any hard rules on contributors regarding contributions but you can read this.
And at last, welcome to Bread it is good to have you!
Closing as the issue seems fixed.
